The version coordinate (0.0.0-stage) and minimal file count are consistent with a placeholder or staging publication rather than a functional library. No exfiltration, dropper, backdoor, silent-relay, or credential-distribution mechanism is present.\n\n## Source: ghsa-malware (18ee43e64a2d1a1e6de6c6dce2b7be4032731042b6ab27f86bdde5ffee1c9689)\nAny computer that has this package installed or running should be considered fully compromised.
